[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter took Algebra 1 in 9th grade. She took geometry her summer after her first year, to get back on track, and AP Calc as a senior. The key is for your son to take summer geometry after 9th grade. [/quote] +1. My daughter didn’t place out of Algebra 1 either and it was a blessing in disguise. We wanted her to get back on track because otherwise she would not be able to take Honors Chem in 10th and Honors Physics in 11th. We asked the school early on about the options and they told us she needed a high A in 9th plus being invited and doing well on end of year Algebra 1 placement test in order to be offered the summer Geometry class. It turned out to be an easy A in 9th grade math which was nice given the rest of her coursework. She also heard the honors 9th grade Algebra 1/Geometry moved very quickly and the class was hard.[/quote]
